Configuration Tools
Web-based manager

Command Line Interface (CLI)

The FortiGate web-based manager is an easy to use management tool.
Use it to configure the administrator password, the interface and default gateway addresses,
and the DNS server addresses.

The CLI is a full-featured management tool. Use it to configure the administrator password,
the interface addresses, the default gateway address, and the DNS server addresses. To
configure advanced settings, see the Tools and Documentation CD included with the
FortiGate unit.

Requirements:
•
An Ethernet connection between the FortiGate unit and management computer.
•
A web browser such as FireFox or Internet Explorer on the management computer.

Requirements:
•
The RJ-45 to DB9 serial connection between the FortiGate unit and management computer.
•
A terminal emulation application (HyperTerminal for Windows) on the management
computer.

Configuring
NAT/Route mode

Transparent mode

You would typically use NAT/Route mode when the FortiGate unit is deployed as a gateway
between private and public networks. In its default NAT/Route mode configuration, the unit
functions as a firewall. Firewall policies control communications through the FortiGate unit.

You would typically use the FortiGate unit in Transparent mode on a private network behind
an existing firewall or behind a router. In its default Transparent mode configuration, the unit
functions as a firewall.

Upgrading to High Encryption
This FortiGate unit has a factory installed low encryption feature set. You can purchase a high encryption upgrade within 90 days of shipment from Fortinet. Fortinet Technical Support can
provide a high encryption license key once you have provided suitable documentation that the necessary export licenses have been granted for your region, and our legal department has
authorized the use of high encryption.
When you receive the high encryption license key, in the CLI, enter the command exec crypto-license .
Fortinet does not guarantee that the customer will receive a export license upon purchase of the product or license key.
